Hi Mary, First I'd like to praise God for giving you the peace that can only come from our precious Lord!!I too feel this is a gift from God,And that it does not reflect our weakness in foods.I've tried for over 28 yrs to lose weight and i have lost alot of weight in the past, but only to gain it back and then some.The Doctors told me it was better to remain fat,then to yo yo like I was doing.my surgery is in june and i can hardly wait.I'll keep you in my prayers,and I ask God to see you through this with no complications and a speedy recovery!!God bless you,Love in Christ,Lora
